While I’m happy to share lots of information with folks it’s very rare that I will give out information like my primary contractor’s name or the names of any of his subs because I keep them busy full time and am not willing to lose my own time with them to someone else.

It rarely is.

But the job gains reported for May and April were revised down by a combined 111,000.

I do believe the combination of these developments alone will bring in some good appreciation and maybe even help with increased rents.

I don't use hospitable or any other combined booking engine other than VRBO and Airbnb.  

You can buy an almost new or brand new single family home here in Arizona for $250-300k, combine taxes and insurance of under $2k per year, rent for $1500-1800, will break even on cash flow with 25-30% down because there is no maintenance or cap ex since it's new (you will have these eventually but rents will increase by the time that happens).

I've been able to get a healthy combination of both cashflow and appreciation from all my properties after a little TLC. 

I'd just do as someone mentioned about.having the cleaners knock and say they have to get started.I have had to call someone that was running late, but it is rare.

Now I do a combination of all I learned

This is not "by the book" advice but we are often in those situations, have to make judgment calls, and litigation is extremely rare.
